NeXT's policy is not to sell the ROMs. If you would like NeXT to change  
thier policy, you should contact hardware marketing.

The only difference between those two ROM versions is that v65 supports  
some minor changes to the PC board design. Your older slab would not do  
anything differently were you to install a newer ROM--well, if you were to  
install a ROM version 3.0 or higher, it could boot directly from a CD-ROM.

I would be surprised if there were any bugs in the ROM code. It is not  
terribly complex, there are a finite number of things that it needs to  
support, and NeXT thoroughly tests all of these. NeXTSTEP is a different  
matter.
